‘Criminal Minds’ season 9 spoilers: A deeper look at ‘The Inspired’

Odds are that you may already know a little bit about the “Criminal Minds” premiere, and the start of an investigation that they are going to undertake regarding some bizarre killings taking place in a specific part of the country. But what happens after that? Well, the results of this investigation will take place on an episode entitled “The Inspired,” which is going to air starting on Wednesday, October 2. There will be a strong presence of some popular award-winning actors, and also some sort of resolution to carry the story forward into some more cases.

Take a look at this full synopsis courtesy of CBS below:

“As the BAU zeroes in on the suspect of the ritualistic killings they’ve been investigating in Arizona, a bizarre connection within the UnSub’s family could lead them to finally nab the suspect, on CRIMINAL MINDS, Wednesday, Oct. 2 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Guest stars include Emmy Award-winning actress Camryn Manheim as Carla Hines and Fred Koehler as her son, Wallace Hines.”

For us, some of the biggest questions include whether or not Hotch is going to be able to handle a larger leadership role earlier on this season, and also whether or not the Regulator is going to have an emotional impact on these characters. Are they will-equipped at this point to deal with deadly killers? Sure, but there is a difference when one of these said killer strikes close to home and makes this somewhat personal. You have to find a way to bounce back and continue to do your job.
